#PhilippeParreno challenges the traditional notion of the artist and refuses to be a producer of objects. By exploring the dynamic relationship between exhibition and artwork, and offering 'experiences of time,' he pioneered a revolutionary shift in contemporary art forms of the 1990s. Utilising the methodologies and vocabulary of different media like radio, television, film, and advanced information technology, he tore down the boundaries between reality and fiction, prompting non-linear temporality and radical changes in narrative structure. VOICES, the largest survey of the artist to date in Asia, continues @leeummuseumofart in Seoul until 7 July. Showcasing the most representative pieces from his thirty-year career, the exhibition provides a comprehensive experience of Parreno's oeuvre from the nineties to the present. — Exhibition views: Philippe Parreno: VOICES, Leeum Museum of Art, Seoul, 28 February–7 July 2024.

Lina Iris Viktor: Solar Angels & Lunar Lords is on view at Pilar Corrias Conduit Street until 13 July. Within this new body of work, Viktor embraces a rich tapestry of cultural references, symbolism and sensory experience, integrating forms from the West African visual cultures of the Ivory Coast, Ghana, and Benin. Bridging geographical and historical boundaries, Viktor synthesises her ancestral heritage with contemporary modes of expression to foreground the political and aesthetic legacies of material extraction and exchange. Coming soon to the Sir John Soane's Museum, London, Mythic Time / Tens of Thousands of Rememberings is a collaborative exhibition between the artist and the museum. Here Viktor mirrors Soane's own eclectic approach to collecting objects from varied cultures and time periods through works spanning sculpture, painting and gilding made especially for this exhibition. Opening on 10 July 2024–19 January 2025. Read more via the link in our bio. - Images: Lina Iris Viktor, a world spun for billions of years before our birth, 2024; Lina Iris Viktor, from dawn to dusk, the soil is rich within us, 2024.

As it's officially Midsummer, we're particularly enjoying this painting from Sophie von Hellermann's 2020 series, A Midsummer Night's Dream. As with Shakespeare's play, von Hellermann's process confronts the struggle between reality and imagination. Applying pigments in large swathing brushstrokes directly to the canvas at an accelerated pace means that once the painting is finished Sophie has to catch up with reality. This sense of immediacy between the working of the mind and the hands imbues her work with a sense of weightlessness and fleeting romanticism that allude to the frenzy of love. — Image: Sophie von Hellermann, Fond Chase, 2020.

‘With all the drawings and maquettes I have made of Villa Venus, I know it so well. It’s almost like a dream: you know exactly where things are and how you move between the spaces.’ –@sofiamitsola 🎨 Earlier this spring, we stepped into Sofia’s London studio just as she was putting the final touches on the paintings that make up her new show, Villa Venus: The Garden. The exhibition continues at Pilar Corrias Savile Row until 20 July. — 📹 @leepretiousstudio #SofiaMitsola #PilarCorrias #InTheStudio #Interview

'Colour, for Tomashi Jackson, is a tool for posing questions about how we see the world and for visually asserting the simultaneity of joy and struggle, of destruction and camaraderie—dualities that, of course, define us. 'She has long been interested in how the language of colour theory mirrors that of segregation; she has described how Josef Albers’s once-groundbreaking assertion that colour is relative, contextual, and responsive continues to be a useful metaphor for critiquing racism. As Jackson says, and her works—at once figurative and abstract, exuberant and riven with fury—demonstrate, “Colour is always changing, and, contrary to popular belief, it is not absolute.”' Such words are especially poignant today, on #Juneteenth . In the summer issue of @artforum , @mearasharma reviews Silent Alarm, Tomashi Jackson’s recent show at the gallery. Head to our bio to read in full. — Image: Tomashi Jackson, After The Dance (Notting Hill Carnival 1976/LAPD raid on Project Blowed Leimert Park 1996), 2024.

The work of Korean artist @koojeonga gives the impression of being situated in a flow of constant transformation. This summer's exhibition at Malmö Konsthall, EHM [Event Horizon Malmö], consists of Koo's new work, OooOoO Malmö (2024). The sculpture – a skatepark constructed entirely of wood – is specifically designed for Malmö Konsthall's exhibition space. Offering a playground for both spontaneous movement and choreography, the sculpture is open for skating every day. OooOoO Malmö is complemented by a selection of the artist's drawings executed in large format directly onto the walls of @malmokonsthall . — Installation views: Koo Jeong A, EHM [Event Horizon Malmö], Malmö Konsthall, 1 June–25 August 2024.

Next week, The Bigger Picture by @TschabalalaSelf will go on view at the Melina Merkouri Art & Concert Hall on the Saronic island of #Hydra , as part of the 25th edition of the Hydra School Projects. The opening reception takes place on Tuesday 18 June from 7pm. A three-channel video installation, The Bigger Picture displays a video recording of Self's first live performance, Sounding Board, 2021. Written and directed by the artist, the play explores themes of domesticity, race, and gender. The dialogue is interspersed with music by Boney M, and the hand-painted, sculpturesque stage – set in the bandstand of Harlem's Jackie Robinson Park – employs the distinctive, brightly coloured geometry and pattern found in the artist's two-dimensional works. The presentation will continue until 2 July 2024. — Image: Tschabalala Self, Sounding Board (Performa Commission), 2021, performance view.

Solar Angels & Lunar Lords, a solo exhibition by Lina Iris Viktor, continues at Pilar Corrias Conduit Street until Saturday, 13 July 2024. The artist’s new paintings, works on paper and sculptures bring together ethically-sourced earthen materials – silk and silkworm cocoons, natural raffia, 24-carat gold, banana yarn and bronze – in formations that reference the West African visual cultures of the Ivory Coast, Ghana, and Benin. Bridging geographical and historical boundaries, Viktor synthesises ancestral heritage with contemporary modes of expression to foreground the political and aesthetic legacies of material extraction and exchange. 🎨 Earlier this spring we paid a visit to Lina in her studio in Italy to learn more about the ideas and processes that have driven this new body of work. — 📹 @instant.prod #LinaIrisViktor  #PilarCorrias  #InTheStudio #Interview
